* * * * BACKGROUND: Depression is a common complication of stroke, leading to increased morbidity and mortality. It can impede the process of rehabilitation, and has been associated with poorer outcomes and increased length of stay in hospital. This systematic review was undertaken as a preliminary step to the development of an evidence-based integrated care pathway (ICP) for the management of post-stroke depression (PSD) in a rehabilitation setting, and is divided into two parts. In part 1 we reviewed the frequency of depression in stroke, its impact on functional recovery and the different methods for assessment. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: In part 2, we discuss the rationale for treatment of PSD, appraise the evidence for effectiveness of the different antidepressant drugs, and consider whether we can identify a recommended first-line treatment for use in our ICP. METHODS: Data sources comprised a computer-aided search of published studies on depression in stroke and references to literature used in reviews. MAIN FINDINGS: From the few controlled trials of anti-depressant therapy in PSD, both tricyclics and selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors (SSRIs) appear to be effective, but the latter may be preferable in stroke because of their prompt action and better side-effect profiles. Within the group of SSRIs there is currently no direct evidence to guide the choice of agent. In the absence of firm guidance, sertraline was chosen on theoretical grounds as one of the most potent with minimal sedative effects and no reported interaction with warfarin. Citalopram may offer an appropriate second choice. CONCLUSIONS: A suggested regimen for the use of sertraline in PSD was put forward. Development of an ICP may help to establish a more consistent approach to assessment and treatment of PSD, and form a basis for future comparison of different treatments as they become available. * “舍曲林是唯一对警觉性操作没有损害的SSRI。这可能是因为舍曲林有多巴胺再摄取的抑制作用” ---J Psychopharmacol. 2005 Jan;19(1):12-20.
